In the "Too much time on their hands department"...

The extent to which liberal minded  idiots morons activists will go to whine about "inequality" is always reaching new and entertaining heights.  Today I am entertained by a news story started when a union organizer (and part time Occupy protester) posed as a Google employee to take part in a protest in San Francisco.  What was the protest about?  Why, the evil practice used by the tech giants to get their employees to work every day.  They use wifi enabled private buses.  How dastardly.  How horrible.  What are these companies thinking, sending privately owned buses to pick up their employees and transport them to work, eliminating 30-40 cars from commute traffic per bus used.  How do they live with themselves?

It appears that instead of treating their employees to a comfortable ride to and from work, these evil companies should be somehow investing in improving public transportation for all.  Unfortunately for the activists, these companies are under no obligation to do that.  However, despite the weak arguments about the private buses "crowding the streets", the reality is that every bus in operation reduces the crowds of cars on the road by the number of people riding it.  These companies are actually helping the environment, and their bottom line, by giving their employees a comfortable ride to work.  And those employees likley get work done on that ride thanks to the wifi.  And I am willing to bet that they get a tax break somewhere in there for the mass transit assistance they provide for their employees.  So, while the activists may whine about the "buses for the privileged", the reality is that the activists are really just whining.  Get a job.
